Scouting Report

Johnson is a complete running back with an impressive blend of size, speed, and vision. He runs with good pad level and leg drive, consistently falling forward for extra yardage. Johnson demonstrates excellent vision and patience, setting up blocks and finding cutback lanes effectively. His burst through the hole is impressive, quickly accelerating to top speed. Johnson shows good contact balance, bouncing off tackles and maintaining momentum through contact. As a receiver, he displays developing hands and route-running ability.
